Altama desert boots on sale

Loved 'em.... cut the heel lining out, and drive on. I still have a pair I use when I'm working in the yard.

I'm not stupid, I'm crazy...there is a difference.

Figured for $30 I'd buy a pair just to throw in the Jeep for contingencies.
Good prep. I'm knee deep in everything from the old Altimas to Bellvilles and Rothco. They get used and hidden everywhere, so I've always got a reliable pair handy.

Well, now that I tried, I find that a guy is shit outta luck unless he wears about a size 3 or 15...nothing much available otherwise. I shoulda known.
What? Are you telling me the average foot size isn't a 3 or 15? Always seems to work out like that, "too good to be true" comes to mind.

What the fuck kind of munchkin-hobbit wears a size 3?!? And how would they expect to survive in a desert? The lizards would get them.

I also have a size 2 for them. I swear, it looks like a Barbie doll accessory.
